LGBT in Mainstream Ads
Posted by: Jon Gilbert
I think it is a combination of all factors - how gays are portrayed in ads, news media and films/television.



CoverGirl Ellen DeGeneres

Posted by: MikeNY
What great news that Ellen DeGeneres will show everyday women that lesbians are not only smart and entertaining, they can be glamorous too! Now if only CoverGirl will start advertising TO lesbians!!



How far do we think it is?

Posted by: Chris Michael
How much longer does anybody think it will take before organisations like the Commercial Closet won't have to be around? Before seeing an ad with a lesbian couple adopting a child is no more or less incendiary than a black man refilling his prescription in another ad?

Thank god that there are groups like these pushing for awareness, but how far until these groups can rest?
